Connect to the Mobile Hotspot With
Tethering
You can connect a computer to the mobile hotspot using the USB-C cable instead of
connecting with Wi-Fi. This kind of cable connection is called tethering.
Note: The first time you use the USB-C cable to connect to the mobile hotspot your
computer's operating system detects the new device.
To install drivers on computers running Windows:
1. Ensure that the mobile hotspot is powered off.
2. Connect the mobile hotspot to your computer using the USB cable.
The mobile hotspot automatically powers on.
Note: Make sure that your computer has access to Internet when you first use the
tethering feature because your computer might need to access the Internet in order
to download the required software driver.
